Hi list,

i have a table with a column where the default value is current_timestamp, but 
somehow all the tuples (around 8.000.000) have the same timestamp, which is, 
honestly speaking, not what i intended to do. So is the current_timestamp 
function only executed when the insert statement starts? I mean of course i can 
change it and insert the current_timestamp explicitly in every tuple, i just 
would like to know why it doesn't work the way i wanted it to work...

Thanks!
Chris
